$A$ diving board is at a height of $h$ from the water surface. $A$ swimmer standing on this board throws a stone vertically upward with a velocity of $16 \,ms^{-1}$. It reaches the water surface in a time of $5 \,s$. In the next $0.2 \,s$, the diver hears the sound from the water surface. What is the speed of sound (in $\,ms^{-1}$)? (Take acceleration due to gravity $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$)

  • A
    $450$
  • B
    $225$
  • C
    $200$
  • D
    $275$
